It is no surprise to me or regular readers of this blog that adult stem cells have been shown to help peripheral vascular disease patients. Time and time again we have seen patients who can't walk or are in danger of amputation of a leg/toe be implanted with adult stem cells and time and time again these patients improve significantly. Here is yet another example of this, in an FDA approved trial no less:
“The similarity in the recovery of our patients is promising, said Dr. Lasala. “We find that the stem cells, once re-injected, go about forming new blood vessels, thus increasing circulation dramatically. Drs. Lasala and Minguell have developed a treatment where a patient's own stem cells are taken from the hip, grown in a sterile environment and then re-infused into 38 areas of the leg. So far, ten patients have received the stem cell treatment for peripheral vascular disease. “Patients are experiencing increased mobility within weeks of their infusions. The continued improvement throughout their recoveries is a positive sign, Lasala said. Carleton Wert could only walk 2 ½ minutes on the treadmill before he underwent the stem cell therapy. At his three week check-up, he clocked 4 minutes. Within two months, his time improved to over 10 minutes. Similarly, Michael Pearl could not even undergo the treadmill test prior to his infusion in mid-November because his pain was so intense. He went from walking 5 minutes at his one-month check-up to 18 minutes at the three-month mark. With increased mobility, Dr. Lasala's patients are resuming their normal routines. Wert, who was on disability because of the ischemia, is now seeking employment. Sharp has gone back to gardening, creating a new antique garden with her husband in their front yard (These people have been given their life back by adult stem cells!- DM) Perhaps most striking is the transformation experienced by Penny Kibideaux. Running out of options to treat her ischemia, Kibideaux had already scheduled a leg amputation. Under the advice of her physician, Kibideaux went to see Dr. Lasala. Not only has he saved her leg, Kibideaux says he has saved her life. Just weeks after her November infusion, she walked several shopping malls as part of her Christmas shopping. She has also recently taken up line dancing. (Are you kidding me? Fantastic!- DM)Click here to read the whole article
